Bubble Shoe
Inspired by the practice of reflexology in which specific pressure points are connected to different organs and systems of the body.
The overall form of the shoe is based on the science of pedobarography which measures the pressure fields between the plantar surface of the foot and a supporting surface.








Iteration1: Digestion



Iteration2: Respiration



Iteration3: Constipation



Iteration4: Relaxation



Iteration5: Headache

I derived surfaces from pedobarography graph of a person. The size and distribution of each spherical unit on the shoe is related to the pressure points based on the reflexology diagram.
